Could somebody on here please help, i'm putting my firestorm together and need to know which pipe comes out of the rear of the thermostat? It's above the temp sensor wire and next to the ground. Is it just a breather because whenever i see an image of the thermostat in the workshop manual it doesn't have anything connected to it?

There is an image at the following link....

Excuse the quality of the image......

I think it connects to the carbs and from there to the water pump.
The bypass hose.

Weird, i just went to the local bike shop to see a storm and theres no pipe connecting to that on their bike so it must be some sort of breather or overflow pipe.
